“ It may make a difference to all eternity whether we do right or wrong today” - James Freeman Clarke

This statement by James is relatable and could impact us on our daily lives. He states that it will make a difference to all eternity or the rest of your life if you do the right thing today or the wrong thing. It all depends on you, and whatever you do will impact you ( in a good or bad way) for the rest of your life. For example, there is a real life scenario that was based on his very quote. There was a great student who name was James Holmes. He was a straight A student and graduated with high honors in 2010. He was an intellectual individual who chose the right , till now.  In 2012, there was a tragedy that happened in Colorado Aurora Theater. There was a massive shooting that included a lot of injuries and deaths. And the killer himself was James Holmes. This interferes with the quote, because one day, he was just giving a formal presentation in his school. If he continued, he would of been successful for the rest of his life. However,  he chose the wrong and committed this massacre. He chose the wrong which made a difference to all eternity. In the other hand, if he decided to study for the rest of his life and continue to being successful in life and choose the right, that would of made a huge difference to all eternity. He would have a successful life rather than being in jail for the rest of his life. This quote can be obtained into someone’s daily life, therefore, they should know what is the right thing to do so they would make a difference for all their eternity.
